The Distillery

Our Brandies – We start with fermented cider we get from our friends at Winchester Ciderworks in Winchester, VA, which is about 6.5% ABV. We distill the mash in our 135-gallon column still to get our base, which is our clear Apple Jack.  Then, we add that clear brandy with charred white oak spirals into ultrasonic machines, which break down the cellular structure of the wood and infuse that color and flavor in about 3 weeks, to make our Oaked Apple Jack.

We take that oaked apple jack, and add a touch of local WV maple syrup to smooth off the burn on the back. The subtle maple flavor is more of an aftertaste in our Maple Syrup Flavored Apple Brandy. Each batch is proofed to 80 proof using limestone spring water we get from our friends at Still Hollow Distillery in Job, WV.

Our Maple Syrup Moonshine – Unlike anything you’ve tasted before! We ferment local WV maple syrup with yeast, which takes about 2 weeks. Then distill the maple syrup mash, oak that moonshine using the ultrasonic system, and proof it to 80 with the limestone spring water.

Our Amaretto Liqueur – Made from our Maple Syrup Moonshine, we’d put this amaretto up against any other. Coming in at a palatable 49 proof and not too sweet, the maple syrup moonshine adds a deep background to this traditional almond liqueur.
